I went a generation back and peeped into the fulcrum of relationships to understand how they were more enduring and stronger than they are today.
I guess, they lived a life which was blend with a lot of cultural nourishment from the roots. It helped them to appreciate and respect the other persons views, look at them with sensitivity and to understand one's feelings well. As long as you can really understand the other persons position with all his/her positives and negatives you would be more empowered to sympathize. From this point on whatever you talk would definitely represent a true sense of welfare and not one which is biased with motto. Its so important here that, you dont use the knowledge to say something which will make efforts to secure your ego.
Pampering your ego is not the bone of contention when you want to really help someone or build a strong relationship.
Conclusion: Since we are missing the cultures from our education, system and nourishment today the basic courtersies like respecting others, being supportive, fostering strong relationships has become such high level of skilled task. What has been so naturally happening so far has become a big thing of wonder.
Let me know your views.

First -- You have become very articulative, expressive and wonderful writing skills.
Now coming to the topic: I don't think being closer in terms of relations has anything to do with culture then. Its more of the fact that, the thought process of each generation is more of clarity(which might be scientific btw) and they understand the need to make themselves useful more than necessary, to utilize their skills.
Hence, the need to strive for better things, which puts them or keeps them away from being closer to each other and "out of sight, out of mind". Earlier days, every one were so close to each other, its difficult to ignore and the only way to make yourselves happy is to make sure people around you are happy in order to keep you happy, so you have better understanding of each other, establish sronger relations, and call it culture. In today's world, the need of an other person(or atleast more than one person) is less, hence, you try to be happy by achieving and fulfilling your purpose of life, which generations have realized that, is more than just "your" people.
I don't know if I could put my thoughts as clearly as you did.My written english as fast as my verbal english which is as fast as my brain. :)
